biolexicon's review against another edition
1.0
This book captured the essence of the Caribbean very well, but other than that nothing stuck with me. The dynamic between Brother Man, the woman living with him and the man who tries to take her away could have been an essential conflict that ran through the novel. Rather, it wasn't dramatic enough to make it a page-turner, which is what it could have been.

I paaaatiently waited for the plot to begin. The ending was amazing though because I never expected the outcomes and the descriptions of these outcomes are haunting. Otherwise, I think the ending is a good one because I have been enlightened and I have hope just like Brother Man and Minette. It was a slow read but worth it in the end.

Not the most beautifully written novel (the dialogue is especially bad), but the character development is wonderful and the plot is fascinating. A really interesting take on the Rastafari movement with overt Christian themes.
